The Saga of Prosperous Snow Continues |
Saturday, January 14, 2017 The Creation Saturday prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" Create a poem inspired from your entries this month. Any style or form (or none at all). Pull lines from all of your entries thus far and see what happens. Obviously you're free to add/subtract words from lines that don't seem to fit the narrative you've come across when compiling your thoughts; this isn't meant to be a summary of the month to date, but a writing exercise. Questions and Answers: A Poetic Writing Exercise Question 1: What is my purpose? On a spiritual pilgrimage I walk toward paradise with rainbows dancing across my path and music whispering to my soul. Question 2: Have I ever had a worst or a better experience? Another day of writing, of listening to melodious echoes from the Divine Spirit reverberating between mind and pen. Question 3: Do we not live in a copy of Eden? A fresh start begins with forgiveness and letting go of the past because survival is an exercise in humility. Question 4: Why do these answers sound paradoxical? It's 2017 my favorite musical instruments are bagpipes; my favorite flowers are roses and hyacinths; my favorite birds are nightingales and doves; I contemplate the fragility of life while dealing with nobodies and somebodies encountering death or facing dangerous situations. |
